Primary Schools set to take part in The Commonwealth Dribble
Scotland and Great Britain international player Morag McLellan and Stepps Hockey Club youngster Lewis Stewart were on hand to help Scottish Hockey launch The Commonwealth Dribble at Caledonia Primary School in Glasgow.
As part of our Hockey Generation campaign, The Commonwealth Dribble is a participation activity that allows primary schools to be part of a fun, hockey-based initiative in the lead up to the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The Commonwealth Dribble also provides schools with the opportunity to be part of a national initiative to have fun playing hockey whilst dribbling around the Commonwealth.
Each school can set itself a target distance to dribble and work at it until May 2014, developing hockey skills and knowledge as they go.
It’s very easy to take part; all you need is a hockey stick, a hockey ball, a few cones and a way of measuring distance.
Each school’s contribution will be recognised and will contribute to the national total. The ambitious challenge is for the combined national total to reach the 9,828km of the journey from Delhi to Glasgow.
Please visit The Commonwealth Dribble page for more information and to register your school’s participation.
